Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017009324A1] An apparatus for determining a depth map for an image of a scene comprises an active depth sensor (103) and a passive depth sensor (105) for determining a depth map for the image. The apparatus further comprises a light determiner (109) which determines a light indication indicative of a light characteristic for the scene. The light indication may specifically reflect a level of visible and/or infrared light for the scene. A depth map processor (107) determines an output depth map for the image by combining the first depth map and the second depth map. Specifically, a depth value for the output depth map is determined as a combination of depth values of the first and the second depth map where the combining is dependent on the light indication. The light determiner (109) estimates the first infrared light indication from a visible light indication indicative of a light level in a frequency band of the visible light spectrum.
